Ki-100 Information
« Reply #30 on: September 15, 2002, 08:25:05 AM »
Not to mention the fact that by the time the Ki84, the Ki-61-II, and the Ki-100 entered testing and service, the fuel quality used by the Japanese was so poor, the engines were not producing no where close to the rated horsepower numbers that you are using for comparsion.

For instance the Ki-84 rated at 1,800hp to 2,000hp, depending on engine model, tested at 392 mph at 20,000ft using Japanese fuel during the war.  Just after the war when tested in the US, at  combat configuration with 100 octane fuel it made 427mph at the same altitude (FYI faster than the Mustang at the same altitude).

So basically your not comparing apples to apples.

La-7 is faster because it has more horsepower and less drag.


With 1850Ps and the wingarea of a La-7 (or letīs say La-5FN, because the air intake over the nose looks very much like a 5FN) the KI-100 would do AT BEST 550km/h. Still a long way to 580-630km/h speed claims of the russians right? (...)

What about the fuel, ADI, and oil for the A6M8?

The N1K2-J has more fuel than the N1K1-J, I'll have to go look for it but I just uncovered that recently...716 liters is for the N1k1-J

???
listed speed for Ki-100@1000m is 510 km/hour
(1850[hp]/1500[hp])*510[km/hour]=629[km/hour]
...i know real physics with an atmosphere & significant MACH numbers is more complex than that, but not exactly how...

Soulyss,

Sorry, it was hard to explain in my English. :o

Ki-84 can turn smaller than P-51.
But P-51 can turn faster than Ki-84.
therefore, P-51 could out-turn Ki-84...I think.

Mitsu, do you have more of these amazing scale drawings you posted??? I am very interested in them! :)
I looked at the website where you can order these from the publisher, but I have no clue how to order them... It doesn't work with credit card and such...

Thanks! :)
